Northern Lights January 9th, 2014

CNN PRODUCER NOTE Travel guide FranciscoDam took these images of the northern lights gliding over the small Norwegian town of Tronvik Thursday night. "I arrived at the location at 9:00 p.m. local time, the light show started immediately and lasted for half hour, then I drove back and posted the pictures," he said. "I could easily call this one an Aurora express -- no waiting or freezing or anything, just drive, enjoy, drive back, publish!"

Hi! Just took these pictures one hour from Tromso - Norway. This is just the begining of a huge CME event hitting the earth as we speak!
